Weekend Trip to Creekside Brazos Rock Camp & Kayak

We enjoyed camping beside the creek and having the whole place to ourselves most of the time. I also appreciate that there’s a bathroom with an indoor and outdoor shower! The water is cold, but after kayaking I didn’t really mind. The launch point was very difficult to manage, but that might be because the water was low. I loved the fact that a five minute paddle down the creek took us to the Brazos and a beautiful swim beach!

Weekend Trip to Burgers Lake Camping

First time visit was great, loved the quiet and calm atmosphere. Host was very helpful and friendly! Would definitely recommend

Weekend Trip to Burgers Lake Camping

We loved camping on Sherwood’s land at Burgers Lake! We wanted something affordable near Dallas/Fort Worth, and this popped up. It felt like an abandoned waterpark all to ourselves- but it will be open soon- which would be even more fun! Plenty of wide open space and privacy. All the amenities are easily accessible. It’s definitely worth staying and we’ll be back if we’re in the area!

Weekend Trip to Creekside Brazos Rock Camp & Kayak

There's a nice creek for fishing on one side of the property. The restroom is very good and more than you would expect for a simple campground.

4 nights at Gypsy Moon Hideaway

I am always grateful for my time here. The surroundings respect nature and the people respect each other. Resources are close, accessible and more than you deserve. It is safe. Minus the threat of nature of course.

Weekend Trip to Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

Huge property. Had such a great time we extended.

Weekend Trip to Sandy Bottoms River Company

Great place to camp! Great access to the river! The river was very shallow and pet friendly.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Amy and team are amazing, kind, and generous hosts. We enjoyed the animals, river, & land to roam on. It was a pleasant reprise from the city. We will definitely be back.

5 nights at Burgers Lake Camping

I had a great experience at Burgers lake! It’s a super great location in Fort Worth, while “feeling” away from the hustle and bustle in a serene environment. The camping areas are covered in grass, so there isn’t dirt and mud. A excellent spot to clean out your RV/van. There are big trees, a basketball hoop, and swings. And, charcoal grills at your camp site. There is a small waterpark the grounds are near, that is closed until end of May. The host is super nice and chill! And, my spot was super private with no one around. A truly peaceful place!

1 night at Burgers Lake Camping

Me and my family had a wonderful time at burgers lake camping sight this was our first camping experience and it didn’t disappoint will be doing it again soon

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

We stayed the weekend for a getaway from life and work. Such a calm and relaxing location. It was nice to lay in the hammock and watch the animals walk around. We enjoyed walks around the property with small trails to walk through. One of our best moments was sitting by the lake at night to star gaze, it was such a beautiful view of all the visible stars. Our 4 legged furry daughter really enjoyed laying on the top floor balcony of the dollhouse to enjoy the entire view. We had such an amazing weekend. Thank you Amy for being such an accommodating host. We will definitely 1000% be back!

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

The experience was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Amy was very accommodating and great with our children in our group. This camp has a wonderful pavilion with lots of seating and activities for the children also. We loved the animals, the quiet, and the area to walk and enjoy. We will definitely recommend this place to others. We look forward to our next visit!!

Weekend Trip to The Dusty Nickel

Daniel’s ranch was so peaceful and relaxing. We had a wonderful night camping underneath the stars. Thank you Daniel for letting us enjoy your land!

3 nights at 3 Lazy G Ranch TX RV & Horse Farm

Both RV sites are excellent. The property is secluded, private and well cared for. The hosts, Shari and Walter, are awesome. The sites are easy to access with big rigs and offer full hookups plus WiFi. Everything worked perfectly and I had ZERO issues. If you are looking to stay in the Rhome or Decatur area, this is the absolute best place.

1 night at Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

In the description for this listing it says the campground is "a pastural oasis just a stones throw away fom urban convenience" and I found it to be just that. It's also a work in progress and I like what they're doing here. I'm a semi-retired van-lifer travelling wherever life takes me but DFW is my home base and it's great to find this place available for those times I need to be in town, this time being my granddaughter's upcoming Sweet 16 birthday. So if you need a relaxing break from the road, this is your place and Rod and Eddie will take care of you.

1 night at Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Used passing through for a night. Quite pleasant and wouldn't mind staying longer next time.

1 night at Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

Loved the forest campsite. The portapotty and trash can were close and clean and the trees were great shade during the day.

Weekend Trip to Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

Very easy to get to due to large banner sign and the host guiding you in to your spot upon arrival. Very gorgeous and open spot. Very communicative and accommodating host. Thanks.

5 nights at Creekside Brazos Rock Camp & Kayak

I had a wonderful time RV camping on Sunshine's land and found it hard to leave the peace and beauty of her place. If I could I would give her 6 stars for being so gracious, responsive, and generously accommodating. For example, she allowed me to settle in the most scenic campsite next to the creek while I had reserved a less scenic one closer to the road. She gave me great river intel and additional time to enjoy kayaking on the Brazos. The campground and restroom are clean and well maintained. The experience was exceptional! The location is superb given you are out in the country yet close to the town of Mineral Wells (8 miles) and the Lake Mineral Wells State Park, both of which I enjoyed visiting! However, It is the peace of the place I relished most. Thank you again, Sunshine!

7 nights at Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

Eddie and Rod were super friendly and accomodating. We boondocked for a week and the space was very quiet and peaceful. We had a great time and we'll be back again!
